NOTHING showed up in the scan outside of the thyroid bed (where the thyroid USED to be)!  There is a little bit of residual tissue - it's basically impossible to get it all out in surgery - there are just too many hyper-delicate structures nearby to muscle around in there.  But NO additional lymph nodes lit up, nothing in the lungs/bones.  Even the mount of hormone being pumped out, after my being so long hypothyroid, is relatively low, meaning what is in there is TINY.  Monday at 10am, I'll be admitted and given 150 millicuries of radioactive iodine and will be at the hospital for at LEAST overnight (it would have been outpatient, but the roomie and I share the bathroom so...).  If I come home on the 3rd, I'll have to stay at least 3-5 feet from other people for 5 days, especially from those with children.  But YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
